Mask wearing is one of the tools to reduce the spread of Covid-19. The policy on mask wearing for children, however, is controversial and varies a great deal across countries. In light of the article "The Case Against Masks at School" dated 27 January 2022 on The Atlantic and your own research, briefly discuss the likely costs and benefits of enforcing mask wearing on children in school. In your opinion, what mask policy (e.g. mandatory mask wearing, recommended mask wearing, or no requirement) should Australian schools adopt? Please back up your answers with specific statistics/relevant examples where possible. Note: This is an open-ended question, and you are expected to conduct some research and apply the cost-benefit principle in your discussion. Reference Smelkinson, M., Bienen L. and N.
